Goals and Objectives
Durham Tech supports all of its employees in their growth and professional development journey. The work of Teaching and Learning supports the College’s vision to be a learning college where everyone is a learner. At Durham Tech, professional development is a collaborative and holistic process. Its success heavily relies on the support of employees and their willingness to share their talents and practice.
Activities
Teaching and Learning is focused on providing professional development activities that support the attainment of our strategic goals. We know that student success is the ultimate aim of the college. These activities support achievement of this goal. Every semester Teaching and Learning invites faculty and staff to share knowledge and best practices aligning with the college's strategic goals. You are encouraged to submit a presentation outline. You are welcome to submit a proposal. Should you need guidance on a topic of interest, feel free to email cle@durhamtech.edu.
Durham Tech supports and encourages professional development that respects diverse perspectives and allows for open discussions without compelling individuals to adopt specific beliefs. This approach contributes to a positive and inclusive professional learning environment.
